Could a pulling sensation and implant movement be a sign of bottoming out? (photos)

August 5, 2024
Asked By:rubilove in San Diego, Texas

I am 4 years post op and the last couple of weeks I've felt a strange feeling in my left breast. When bending down I feel like my implant is moving, also flexing my peck muscle and lifting my arm it feels strange, not painful but almost like the muscle is pulling. I have my implants under the muscle. Otherwise no pain and the breasts are soft and looking normal.
